Question: Is Drinking Cold Water During or After Exercise Good or Bad?
Is drinking cold water during or after exercise good for you or bad for you? Does the temperature of the water matter at all?
Answer: Believe it or not, cold water is absorbed faster by your body than water at room temperature or at body temperature. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that water and other drinks be chilled when used for exercise.
Cold Water and Cold Drinks Rehydrate Faster
Research has shown that cold water passes through the stomach faster and is therefore sent to the intestines for quicker absorption. During and after exercise, you want to rapidly replace fluids lost due to sweat, so cold water and cold sports drinks are preferred.
Cold Water and Cold Drinks Taste Better
Another reason for drinking cold drinks is that most people find that they taste better, making you more likely to drink more and more often
and from www.fitsugar.com :
What's the deal with drinking cold water? Is it bad for you? If you drink it, are you burning more calories? I'm here to set the record straight.
Drinking cold water is actually good for you. In order to re-hydrate after exercising, your water should be below room temperature. Colder fluids leave your stomach more quickly, so they'll get to your body faster.
When you're in hot weather, you lose extra fluids. Drinking cold water actually helps to cool you from the inside.
So now we know it's good to drink cold water, but are we burning extra calories when we do? The answer is yes. Your body is burning calories to raise the temperature of the cold water to be equal to your body temp.
so, tadah, there you've got it! (:
well, it's still up to you to believe it though. cause there're still some comments on the net saying cold water causes joint aches yada yada. and the meaning of cold water of course it's PLAIN COLD WATER that is.
